Having come up the Don Branch from Toronto Union Station and taking a right onto the Belleville Sub a Leaside, a pair of CP RDC-1's lead by 9060 head eastbound at Mile 200 between Warden and Birchmount Avenues, approaching the Highway 401 underpass. They're passing a westbound freight that appears to have a good amount of stock cars on the tail end, with CP steel offset-cupola caboose 437399 bringing up the markers. On the right is Canron Ltd's pipe manufacturing facility in Scarborough (served by rail siding), that became the site of a Simpsons-Sears warehouse in the early 1970's.

Original photographer unknown (possibly a Bill Grandin photo), Dan Dell'Unto print collection.
